Abstract

The D2N2 Local Enterprise Partnership is in the process of revising its Strategic Economic Plan, which will run to 2030. The most recent D2N2 state of the economy report highlighted the persistent productivity gap and the inclusive growth challenge for the D2N2 area. Two detailed pieces of research have been commissioned on the challenges of productivity, and on inclusive growth in order to provide an evidence base to support the revision of the SEP. This report forms one of those pieces of research and as such will act as an integral piece of work to the SEP.
With significant funding streams soon to expire, this SEP refresh has the opportunity to make its own case for a local economic strategy. The starting point for this report is that unless inclusive growth is the guiding principle of an economic strategy, rather than a strand of work, it is doomed to fail. Inclusive growth is an approach which has the potential to be transformative precisely because different policy and programme concerns are explored in terms of their impact across both the economic and the social. This is about what is done, but also about how it is done.
